Hi Mitko,
I can get the script to run without error so long as I run it in the
same directory where the files wa_search_procs.sql and wa_template.sql
reside.
But I'm still not sure what the starting file structure should be. I
continue to get this error when I http://localhost:8890/ods/:
Error HTTP/1.1 404 File not found
The requested URL was not found URI = '/ods/not_found.vspx'
Also, I noticed a possible discrepancy below:

Hi Mitko,
Unfortunately, I have more questions:

Hi Michael,
The ODS framework has no file system VAD package as it's user home
temples mechanism is WebDAV oriented.
However it's possible to setup the ODS to run in file system.
To do that i.e. to make appropriate virtual directories etc. you may do
the following:
* suppose ODS Framework directory structure is under :
[root]\virtuoso\var\lib\virtuoso\vsp
Are you saying I should *copy* all of the source files under appsrc
under \vsp? OR just *copy* the appsrc\ODS-Framework files OR something
different?
If it is just ODS-Framework, how do I get to and edit specific
application files (e.g., ODS-Briefcase)?
In other words, should I not be creating a process and environment for
editing and then re-deploying the entire ODS and its apps?
* a copy of <cvs>/binsrc/oat/toolkit under ODS-Framework directory as
subdirectory 'ods'
***
in the virtual 'wa', this subdirectory is listed as 'oat'.
***
would this now become:
[root]\virtuoso\var\lib\virtuoso\vsp\ODS-Framework\ods ?
* have a sql script with following content:
registry_set('_wa_path_', '/ods/');
load wa_search_procs.sql;
load wa_template.sql;
vhost_remove (lpath=>'/ods');
vhost_remove (lpath=>'/ods/images/icons');
vhost_define (lpath=>'/ods', ppath=>'/wa/', is_dav=>0, vsp_user=>'dba',
def_page=>'sfront.vspx',
opts=>vector('xml_templates', 'yes', '404_page','not_found.vspx'));
vhost_define (lpath=>'/ods/images/icons', ppath=>'/wa/icons', is_dav=>0);
The above will define virtual directories & setup procedure for use from
file system.
Also you can run init.sql (development script) from ODS-Framework
directory .
I don't understand. init.sql is not the same content as the sql script
listed above.
I also assume that 'vhost' commands refer to WebDAV as the target.
To execute scripts, you can use the command line ISQL tool (isql.exe)
e.g.
CMD> isql.exe [sql_port] dba [dba pass] [script_file_name]
Please note that in the above scripts the 'ODS-Framework' directory is
copied under HTTP root directory as 'wa' subdirectory, so if you want
another name of the copy you should change the places where 'wa' is
mentioned.
By HTTP root directory are you referring to the root virtual directory
in WebDAV?
Is 'wa' mentioned only in the *.sql files, or where else?
As for putting back changes in WebDAV, just push back the changed & new
files in the ODS original location in CVS checkout and make a vad
package for deployment.
Do I assume correctly that I will still be able to run ODS as files get
modified without having to deploy back to WebDAV? My understanding is:
a) deployment is really only a nicety for packaged distributions, but
not necessary during development; and b) modified VSPX get compiled to
an intermediate PL "on the fly". Correct?
Also, per earlier recommendations, I am *not* using the CVS, but simply
the source code (mostly appsrc) from the SourceForge distribution.
Please advise if that is not the right way to go.
Can you point me to documentation about making a VAD file other than
http://docs.openlinksw.com/virtuoso/VAD.html (pretty complicated)?
Please let me know if this helps.
Best Regards,
Mitko
